bless up everybody, and I know I am Hines, and today in Hines, I this is your morning cup of tea.

And this morning I really wanted to address the ones, the ones of us that are stuck in the past,

or our mind, heart is in the past, in a situation, in an experience that we had,

that's truly keeping us from being present, and it's truly keeping us from moving forward.

We think back often, we go back to the situation, and we relay the process, we relay the actions,

and we still feel the emotions also deeply from this experience. We could be having the

most amazing day, and our mind goes out of control, and takes over, and now we are stuck in the past.

And this is very difficult, you know, I've gone through this myself, just even a few weeks ago,

I was in the past, you know, to the point where it was taking a toll on my own mental health.

And I said, you know what, today I heal, today we heal, we make the decision to create closure,

to bring ourselves from the past and bring ourselves back into the present.

You know, we take our journals out and we write, we write our feelings out, we express ourselves,

we allow it to get out, we get out of our mind, you understand, because the mind is a tricky place,

sometimes in the mind will bring us into a space that is hard to get out of, but know that you

are not alone, you know, this is something we all go through, but it's time we come back,

because our heart and our mind needs to be present, because in the presence there's so much

beauty to experience, and in the presence is where we are needed. You know, sometimes I just take

my phone or my mic and I just record myself talking and I just express myself, my pain, my worries,

and then I listen back to it. And for some reason, hearing myself, it will heal myself. I'll be able

to listen to myself and give myself advice instead of just sitting in my mind, the understand.

I highly suggest that if you've been stuck in the past, heart and mind, that you grab your journal

and you just write, that you record yourself, grab your phone and make a memo and express yourself,
